LEON "ROCKY" EDWARDS IN CAMP: VLOG; EP 1 (SPARRING, BOXING & ASH BEGG; THE MAN THAT LOST 16 STONE)

After a turbulent year for Leon Edwards with the pandemic, UK lockdown, Opponent withdrawals, and doing 3 back to camp camps, Rocky finally has an opponent. On March 13th 2021 Leon will face a tough challenge in Belal Muhammad on UFC fight Night in Vegas.
This is a peek into a days training with Rocky, whilst he's in camp, and a few laughs. I've gotten to know Leon pretty well over the last few years and I don't think many of the fans have seen the funny side to Rocky, which is most of the time! I hope to show a bit more of that in the the next couple of videos as well as a glimpse into how hard he works.

4:54 that slip uppercut looked so natural man I sware leon is the most aesthetically pleasing fighter to watch in the ufc, so skilled man, such a great fighter.

[@prostriking]

He a "smooooth operator" haha. Can't wait for the right really hope it's Leon's night to show his skills!

[@PiffFighting]

Glad i found this channel Rocky is my favourite fighter in terms of skill and the way he represents

[@neonjesus8831]

You gotta appreciate the way Leon maintains and manipulates distance. You see him not move a lot, but make a lot of small adjustments to draw his opponent into his range or get just at the edge of their shots before committing with his own footwork to land.

[@prostriking]

100% mate he is really clever the way he moves, has great natural instincts as a fighter and knowing where to put himself! Thanks for the comment mate ❤️
